Cataract Surgery
I am going to set up cataract surgery soon. I had trabeculectomy surgery already on the same eye. The surgery caused a "fold" in the eye and the pressure is still low. Should I go thru cataract surgery or is there something else I should do?
That's why I am a little worried about the cataract surgery. The glaucoma surgery was successful in lowering the pressure but I lost the clear vision I had. The slope on top of my eye has also caused astigmatism which should be correct with the cataract surgery. What questions should I ask my specialist?

There is probably more to this than you are describing. The surgeon must also be planning something for the hypotony (low pressure).
